Pat Armstrong

Stamford based Studio Potter

Pat is participating in ESC Artists Stamford Arts Centre autumn events, Gallery Exhibition from 23 October – 4 November 2018 and Artists Market in the Ballroom on 4 November 2018.

Pat Armstrong has lived all her life in a small village close to Stamford in Lincolnshire.

I am a studio potter, working from a studio in my garden and I specialise in Raku firing.
I sell through galleries situated all over the UK , I take part in Pot Fests in Scotland and Cumbria and participate in local exhibitions and pottery markets.

Originally Pat’s designs were strongly influenced by the Anglo Saxon pots but following a progression from burnished and sawdust fired pots to Raku, the shapes have become more classical with elegant long necks, flared rim, round jars and bottle shapes, often with black resisted rings around the base of the neck.
